Introduction
The Dufour 37 marks the beginning of a new generation and direction for Dufour, while still incorporating design principles and Dufour DNA refined over 60 years of boat building. The 37 features a completely new hull design by Naval Architect Umberto Felci, focusing on maximising interior light, comfort, and space while delivering the exceptional sailing experience Dufour is known for.
A key part of the new hull design is a pronounced full-length hull chine, which greatly improves form stability, reducing reliance on the keel to keep the yacht sailing upright. This offers three significant benefits:
Safer and More Comfortable Sailing:
Maintaining a more upright position ensures a safer and more comfortable sailing experience, facilitating easy movement around the boat while underway.
Maximised Performance:
Less heel results in reduced water resistance on the hull, improving hydrodynamic efficiency and resulting in greater speed through the water. With the amount of heel minimised, the efficiency of sail is maximised, optimising wind usage and allowing for more effective trimming to enhance upwind performance.
Increased Interior Space:
The incorporation of the chine allowed the designers to carry her beam further forward, giving the forward cabin volume that you will not find on any other yacht of her size.
